Improve the taxi
Twenty knots on a monitor produces the visual sensation of about ten. The advice to "taxi at a walking pace" cannot fix this, because your sense of walking pace is exactly the thing that's broken. Put the groundspeed readout in your scan and obey it for the next fifty flights, the way a student pilot leans on the airspeed indicator before learning to read attitude.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
One stabilised approach gate: five checks where the approach path is 500 ft above the runway. The 1,000 ft gate was not assessed, because the approach did not join final that far out.
Side view — the last 1,524 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 1,524 m of the 1,664 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 622 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
The flight began with taxiing from the parking to the runway at York Airport, taking 9 minutes and covering less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft, a Vision Jet, then departed from runway 17, with a takeoff distance of 719 meters, which was 65% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 91 knots.
As the aircraft climbed, it encountered local weather conditions of 12°C temperature and a wind of 20 knots at 320°. The crosswind was 5 knots, and the tailwind was 19 knots. The enroute climb started 1 mile north of Spring Grove, Pennsylvania, and reached an altitude of 12,871 feet above sea level, an increase of 11,533 feet in 8 minutes, covering 19 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered a level cruise, starting 6 miles west of Jarrettsville, Maryland, and lasted 9 minutes, covering 33 nautical miles. The enroute descent started 1 mile northeast of Butlertown, Maryland, and descended from 12,860 feet to 11,786 feet, a decrease of 1,074 feet in 2 minutes, covering 12 nautical miles.
The aircraft then climbed again, starting 4 miles northwest of Cecilton, Maryland, and reached an altitude of 12,838 feet, an increase of 2,081 feet in 2 minutes, covering 9 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started 2 miles southwest of Glasgow, Delaware, and lasted 11 minutes, covering 61 nautical miles.
The aircraft then entered a descent, starting overhead Stockton, New Jersey, and descended from 12,849 feet to 2,653 feet, a decrease of 10,196 feet in 11 minutes, covering 54 nautical miles. The enroute level cruise started 2 miles northeast of West Milford, New Jersey, and lasted 4 minutes, covering 15 nautical miles.
The final descent started overhead Hillsdale, New Jersey, and descended from 2,661 feet to 1,282 feet, a decrease of 1,378 feet in 2 minutes, covering 4 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 19 at Teterboro Airport, heading 183.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,272 feet above ground level.
The landing on runway 19 was successful, with a touchdown point 182 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed was 65 knots, which was good, and the touchdown rate was smooth at -148 feet per minute. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.1 meters from the centerline.
The local weather conditions at Teterboro Airport were 7°C temperature and a wind of 4 knots at 220°. The crosswind was 2 knots, and the headwind was 3 knots. The total landing distance was 742 meters, which was 45% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good.
The taxiing from the runway to the parking took 2 minutes and covered less than 1 nautical mile. The total flight distance was 212 nautical miles, taking 59 minutes, and the aircraft used -120 kilograms of fuel.
The Vision Jet aircraft successfully landed at KTEB Teterboro Airport, achieving a score of 94.0%. The final approach to runway 19 was initiated from the north, with the aircraft heading 183.0° at a distance of 4 nautical miles and an altitude of 1,272 feet above ground level.
Upon landing, the aircraft touched down on the runway, but with a threshold speed that was slightly too high at 85 knots. This indicates that the pilot may have been able to make adjustments to the approach to achieve a more optimal touchdown speed. The touchdown point was located 182 meters beyond the designated touchdown zone, which suggests that the pilot may have been able to make a more precise landing.
The touchdown speed of 65 knots was considered good, and the touchdown rate of -148 feet per minute was smooth, indicating a controlled descent. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 7.1 meters from the centerline, which may have been due to a slight deviation in the approach or during the landing roll.
The local weather conditions at the time of the landing were characterized by a temperature of 7°C and a wind speed of 4 knots from 220°. The crosswind component was minimal at 2 knots, while the headwind component was 3 knots. These conditions were relatively calm, which may have contributed to the smooth landing.
The total landing distance of 742 meters was 45% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft was able to stop within a reasonable distance. The runway rollout alignment was very good, suggesting that the pilot was able to maintain control of the aircraft during the landing roll and bring it to a stop in a safe and controlled manner. Overall, the landing was considered successful, with the aircraft achieving a high score and demonstrating good control and precision.
